I really like reaching out and seeing the audience - they're potential audiences! And on occasion I can make them excited about going to the theater again, if they've ceased or gone less.
From Harold Prince
Despite the successes, you remember the failures - rather lovingly.
There are wonderful composers and librettists out there. It's the lack of creative producers that is troubling.
We've got to find a way to protect the process of making musical theater.
I remember when people actually wore coats and ties to theatre every night. They don't anymore. It's very different.
I saw 'On The Town' about nine times. I discovered it. I loved it. I was in college.
Lyrics can't do what they do - or should do - when you're creating a musical with rock lyrics. There's plenty of room for rock musicals, just not all rock musicals.
I really don't spend time thinking about the past. I think about the future. I'm not stopping.
A star may guarantee business, but the tradeoff is a very short run.
Producing should be a creative responsibility.
